Lava Lake (Treasure Mode)

This stage begins with five green tiles readily available. Clearly, your first order of business should be to place objects on those tiles. The real question is where you can get the stuff to do so. There's one crate close at hand. Grab it and place it, but you still have four patches remaining.

Start by heading to the right. There are some guys fighting, both in red garb with black turbans and in beige garb with blue turbans. They'll mostly fight each other if you leave them to their own devices, which is precisely what you should do as you have one character hop onto a lift that will carry him to higher ground. Now step around to hanging basket of sorts and stand on it before switching to the other character and activating a switch on ground level. Hold the 'Action' button to make the lift glide over to the right side of the area, where the character riding it will automatically lea to solid ground. Then it's an easy matter to push a crate along a tile strip and over a ledge. The crate will drop and break to pieces. You can then use those pieces to form a ladder leading up the wall to the right.

From that ledge, have your spear wielder toss spears into the sockets. Then hop across those spears to the next ledge, where you can find a crate of junk. Grab it, drop down to the floor level and carry the junk over to the left, where you can set it on a tile. Then head back to the right and break down the block wall in the back right corner (behind where you constructed the ladder) to find another box. Carry it over to the green patches, as well. Now you only have two more to find.

(Above Left) Give your pal a ride on the moving ledge so that he can find junk to the right. (Above Right) Assemble a trail of spears to climb up and to the right where more junk awaits.

Head left from those green patches now. Ignore the brawling thugs long enough to chuck two spears at the sockets along the back wall. Hop across those spears and up to a space to the right. Hop across the extended metal ledges, then to a small outcropping where you can grab a junk box. Drop down to the lower level and place it on another of the green patches. You only have one more to go!

As before, head to the left again. Make your way to the lower left area, where a ladder leads up to a ledge above. Climb the ladder, then head across the hanging bridge toward the back of the upper ledge. As the village elder, step on a patch of sunlight and then press the 'Action' button to initiate a puzzle. Watch the pattern of lights flashing across the symbols on the wall, then repeat them to open a panel. You can grab a crate here, then drop down and carry it back over to the green patches to the right. Place the crate.

Now you can assemble a vehicle out of the pieces. It'll drift down into the lava. Hop aboard and you can head right to find the treasure chest. If you're looking for a lot of easy LEGO pieces, remember that you can also explore the lava area to the left and also some to the right beyond the treasure chest, since a lot of pieces are available for the taking. When you're ready, snag the treasure chest to finish up the stage.
